Instructions

1

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with cooking spray or coconut oil.
2

In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp ground flaxseed with 4 tablespoons of water and let sit for 5 minutes to form a gel.

Fold in half of the 1/2 cup roughly chopped walnuts and half of the 1/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips.

Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top. Scatter the remaining walnuts and dairy-free chocolate chips over the surface.

Bake for 35 minutes until the oatmeal is set and the top is golden. Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Questions

Can I make Vegan Banana Bread Baked Oatmeal gluten-free?

Yes. The gluten in this entry is 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats. Swap the oats for certified gluten-free oats. Everything else proceeds as written.

Can I make Vegan Banana Bread Baked Oatmeal ahead?

Yes, it takes well to being made ahead. Refrigerate leftovers within two hours and eat them within three days. Reheat covered in a 300 F oven until warmed through.

Can I halve or double Vegan Banana Bread Baked Oatmeal?

Yes. As written it serves 6. Every ingredient in this entry carries precomputed half and double quantities, and the app's batch dial rewrites them inside each step. Doubled, split it across two pans and rotate them halfway; one crowded pan bakes unevenly.
